Overnight, "helmet fever" brushes the screen of friends. Recently, the Ministry of Public Security has deployed the "One Helmet and One Belt" security guard operation throughout the country. Since June 1, we have investigated and corrected the behavior of not wearing safety helmets while riding motorcycles, and publicized and guided the electric bicycle passengers to wear helmets. The Regulations of Zhejiang Province on the Administration of Electric Bicycles, which came into force on July 1, also clearly stipulates that electric bicycle drivers and passengers should wear safety helmets.
Electric vehicle helmet Different quality
In Cheng Li's opinion, the electric vehicle helmet is too hard. The key is to see whether the buffer layer and helmet shell can work. "During a collision, the buffer layer can quickly absorb energy and reduce the risk of head concussion, skull injury and other risks. Similarly, the hard shell can also reduce the probability of head puncture injury. But most electric vehicle helmets on the market are not equipped with a buffer layer at present," said Cheng Li.
The absence of national standards leads to the lack of bottom line, and the threshold of standards formulated by enterprises is generally low. This has caused the embarrassment of government quality supervision. It is difficult for supervisors to judge whether the product quality is up to standard by on-site inspection alone, and even more difficult to investigate and deal with the production and operation of low-quality helmets.
"Some of them are speculators who resell helmets." Wu Qinfei, director of Dongcheng Market Supervision and Administration Office of Yueqing Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, took an example. Helmets with an ex factory price of 40 yuan were sold again and again, and eventually rose to more than 100 yuan in the hands of consumers. Recently, the Ministry of Public Security has made it clear that the "helmet craze" has gradually cooled after the electric vehicle passengers are not punished for not wearing helmets. Consumers and business operators have also shifted their attention from price to safety and quality.
"Our helmets are made of new ABS materials. The goggles are PC polycarbonate and the buffer layer is EPS foam. These are better materials in the market at present." Lin Chaimei picked up a semi-finished helmet shell from the shelf and threw it down from the fifth floor window. The helmet bounced off the ground, intact. With the influx of many enterprises into the helmet field, Yueqing's market share is bound to shrink in the future. Lin Chaimei and local business operators are eager to have a place in the future competition.
However, the awareness of the safety and performance of helmets in the domestic market is not high, and the government and the media need to continue to promote them; Some enterprises that have recently swarmed into the helmet field are sure to disrupt the market by sacrificing quality in pursuit of short-term benefits. She expects the government departments to strengthen joint law enforcement and standardize market order. At the same time, call Electric vehicle helmet Mandatory national standards will be issued as soon as possible to set a safety bottom line for the market.
